  • Recording audio for wildlife videos is not as simple as it sounds. Audio is very important for nature and wildlife videos and in this video, we try a few microphones and share our experience using audio recorders. This is not meant to be an audio expert video about the best way to record audio in the field. We are not audio experts but merely wildlife and landscape photographers taking steps into the making of wildlife and nature videos. The video is shot in Grimsey, north Iceland. A great location to experience and try to record the sounds of the amazing bird cliffs.

      The best idea we have heard for a long time ;-) For some reason both Sony and Canon have offered us all kinds of benefits for switching brands, but Nikon is silent.

    Hey Gudman... love the pants too with the knee pad, I am sure it is much more comfortable on the rocks with these. Where did you get them?

  • @harrywhite801
    @harrywhite801 Рік тому +1

    Love all of your videos. Wondering what brand your pants are, i've been looking for a pair with built in knee pads. it would make it so much easier on my old knees when kneeling down to get the low perspective shots. keep up the awesome work.

    • @GudmannAndGyda
      @GudmannAndGyda  Рік тому +1

      I knew it! This is going to turn into a fashion brand ;-) I got these in a local craftsman store in Iceland. The one I own is: sindri.is/bl%C3%A5kl%C3%A4der-vinnubuxur-4-way-stretch-bla-198916449900c50
      The brand is BLÅKLÄDER 4-Way Stretch. My favorite pants when out in the field. Wish I had started to use them long time ago. The knee-pads are sold separately, but they are standard size and fit all pant-models. If you search for Blaklader work pants on Amazon, you will find some models, but I am not sure if exactly the model I am using is found there. I am sure they can be found somewhere, just make sure to buy the "4-way stretch" model.

    Love the video. Fabulous to see all the northern birds on the cliffs. Such an interesting little white bird at the 9.00 minute mark. Could you be so kind as to educate us - what bird is that :) Regards, Richard

      Thank you RJ. The bird at the 9 minute mark is Snow Bunting (Plectrophenax nivalis). Cute birds and very relaxed in Grimsey.

    So do you prefer shotgun or stereo mic for capturing bird sounds?

    • @GudmannAndGyda
      @GudmannAndGyda  5 місяців тому

      In general, for birds, the shotgun microphones are the way to go. For environment audio, stereo is great.

    Hallo! Your videos are very interesting and nice. Sometimes it looks a little bit scary to see you walking around so near the cliffs. Audio is very difficult . If you are interested you can look at my video "tranor vid bjurum våren 2022 ver II ". We about 20000 cranes in this area Bjurum where I live Best Regards from Sweden // Hans-Olof
